What could be improved: Nothing, it was all brilliant.Franky from New Zealand – 13 November 2024 (9/10)
The central location, beautiful facilities and massive swimming pool. The SPA is a must-try. Its quite experience but worth every cent. Hui Xu (Zihui) was excellent and made me feeling back home. She was very patient and detailed about my stay. I had a great time because of her professionalism. Fantastic range of New Zealand wine.
What could be improved: Not at all.Yin from Netherlands – 11 November 2024 (9/10)
Staff are helpful at all times and the location is excellent. Overall ambiance is great.
What could be improved: I was upgraded to a bigger room with lots of windows which was great however the windows are not properly screened/glazed from the outside therefore lacking in privacy and having to shut the blinds down defeat the purpose of having windows and keeping the natural lights outYao from Taiwan – 3 October 2024 (9/10)
Pleasant experience. Front desk, Edward, provides good service. Recommend our friends to stay when visit Shanghai.
Lisa from South Africa – 18 September 2024 (9/10)
It really is the best hotel to stay in Shanghai. The food is delicious and there are so many choices, Italian, the main restaurant, the bar and the Chinese restaurant. The location is fantastic, and the staff go out of their way to make you comfortable and happy. Loved my stay there.
What could be improved: For some reason, this time the wifi was not great.Chas from United Kingdom – 30 May 2024 (9/10)
